Last night was one of those amazing nights where I was able to encounter God with my youth group. For those of you who don't know me, I have been a bible study leader at my youth group for nearly 7 years now. A long time, isn't it? Being a youth leader hasn't always been easy and I'd be fooling myself if I said the thought of quitting has never crossed my mind. It has - and I've actually tried to quit once - but I keep coming back. It's not because of the church itself or even the people there (no matter how dearly I love them), it's because I truly believe that God has placed a deep call on my life to serve Him there. I don't know if that call will be forever but I refuse to leave until He says so.
Over the years and as I entered university and then the workforce, I've met so many people who don't hold the same faith that I do. I won't deny that these other views and beliefs have caused me to throw questions at God but I've never questioned God, nor the purpose that He's got for my life.
And last night, was a reminder of the unrevocable destiny God has placed not only on my life but everyone - no matter how young or old - who follows Him.
We are YD; a youth with a destiny and a youth that will leave a legacy.
Wow, I know this is pretty deep stuff for a Saturday morning but last night was really an amazing night and I just had to record it somehow ;)

You'll probably not read this until a long but well done, Will. You took the stage tonight for the first time in two years. You got back up again and we're all so very proud.
